GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

5.0 Junior

My experience at TNHS has been extremely positive with the culture, people, and opportunities offered here. I really want our school to be kept open, because currently the district is attempting to shut the high school down and overpopulate one high school.
4.0 Senior
11/4/2023
I think that Thomas Nelson is really good for students who are able to push themselves. There are lots of opportunities for dual credit classes and AP. Many students are even able to earn their Associates Degrees before they graduate high school.
3.0 Alum

To be rather honest Thomas nelson high school liked to push the narrative of giving students their voice when in reality them more ofter took away students voices.
